Apple's licensing approach (ca. 1994-1997) is a bad idea. Original text by Steven Levy, Macworld January 1995. Andy Bechtolscheim quote about SPARC licensing and Macintosh clones: “Sun had a unified business… it wasn't really selling separate software. … that whole notion of defining success [as] ‘other people adopt your thing'… Apple was criticized for being a closed system, then they licensed SuperMac … to build clones …. and the first thing Steve Jobs did when he came back to Apple was he killed all the clones, right? ‘cause if you cannot build a better system yourself, you don't need the clones for sure, right?” Transcript. Guerrino de Luca's time with Apple goes back to at least 1992 (appearance at 1m52s), included a stint at Claris, and ended shortly after Steve Jobs returned in 1997. Guerrino's last appearance with Apple. Don't worry; he did fine for himself–he went to Logitech and was its president and CEO until 2008. Guerrino bookending Apple's System 7.5 promo video. Given Apple's tendency to undergo frequent reorgs throughout the '90s, Don Strickland did not last as head of licensing operations. Unfortunately Don passed away in 2022 though his website is still up. Compaq was a much more creative and technically significant company in its early days before it was forced to produce bargain basement PCs. Rod Canion's excellent and highly entertaining (for nerds) book “Open” recounts the story. Power Computing only made it halfway to its goal of selling 100,000 Macs in its first year.

Supermac's owner Pat McDonagh is voicing strong opposition to plans for a near 17% increase in personal injury awards. He argues that the rise will only add more strain on struggling businesses, and drive up insurance costs. With Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan now considering the proposal, McDonagh warns it could lead to more court cases and higher legal fees, benefiting the legal profession but costing businesses and consumers…Joining Kieran to discuss this is Stuart Gilhooley, Solicitor and Senior Counsel and Brian Hanley, CEO of Alliance for Insurance Reform.

At SuperMac, I thought I was good VP of marketing; aggressive, relentless and would take no prisoners – even with my peers inside the company. But a series of Zen-like moments helped me move to a different level that changed how I operated. It didn't make my marketing skills any worse or better, but moved me to play forever on a different field.

A year after we started repositioning the company, Engineering, which had been working on a family of new products literally for years, came to deliver some good news and bad news.

SuperMac War Story 5: Strategy versus Relentless Tactical Execution — the Potrero Benchmarks by Steve Blank

The Owner of Supermac's says the High Court's decision to quash a legal challenge stalling plans for a motorway plaza in Ennis is more important than the company's recent trademark victory against McDonalds. The dismissal of a judicial review on Friday brings an end to a ten-year planning saga and will allow the indigenous fast food chain to press ahead with a new facility just off junction 12 on the M18 near Doora. It's expected the plaza will now cost up to €15m to build and will employ 120 people when finished next year, while the construction phase due to begin in January will create a further 100 jobs. Supermac's Managing Director Pat McDonagh says the battle has been worthwhile.

A former Mayor of Ennis insists the High Court's decision to allow Supermac's to press ahead with contentious plans for a motorway plaza on the outskirts of the town must be welcomed. A protracted 10-year planning process came to an end on Friday after a judicial review stalling the development was quashed. When Pat McDonagh first lodged his planning application for a motorway plaza on the outskirts of Ennis in December 2014, it's unlikely he could have predicted the swings and roundabouts to come. An Bord Pleanála would later refuse permission and after this two more applications were withdrawn in 2016 and 2018, before the board finally gave the project the green light in 2022. This decision was soon challenged in the High Court by Kilfenora Engineer Michael Duffy, who raised concerns over the impact it would have on special areas of conservation, however the case was rejected on Friday. In the intervening years, multiple objections were lodged to the development by local businesses who feared the large development would take traffic and footfall away from the town centre and reduce spending. Former Mayor of Ennis Clarecastle Fine Gael Councillor Paul Murphy insists, now a decision has been reached, local traders must aim to harness the opportunities of the plaza and market their unique offering to the new passing traffic. The motorway plaza is proposed for a 17 hectare site just off junction 12 on the M18 near Kilbreckan between Doora and Clarecastle. The facility's expected to cost up to €15m and will employ 120 staff when built and will create 100 jobs during construction. During the planning, appeals and legal process, the Managing Director of Supermac's claims to have spent over €1.5m on getting the plaza project over the line. Pat McDonagh says while he's looking forward to the new venture, he believes Ireland's planning system needs serious reform.

McDonald's vient de perdre une bataille. En effet, le Tribunal de première instance des Communautés européennes (TPICE), qui siège à Luxembourg, a retiré au géant de la restauration rapide le droit de nommer "Big Mac" tous ses produits à base de volaille. Une décision qui vaut pour les 27 pays membres de l'UE.Elle est l'aboutissement d'un long processus judiciaire, qui remonte à 2017. Cette année-là, Supermac's, une chaîne de restauration rapide irlandaise, conteste l'attribution exclusive de l'appellation "Big Mac" aux plats à base de poulet servis par McDonald's.Le litige est d'abord porté devant l'Office de l'Union européenne pour la propriété intellectuelle (EUIPO en anglais), qui n'a fait droit qu'à une partie des demandes de Supermac's. La chaîne irlandaise a donc décidé de faire appel de cette décision auprès du TPICE.Et cette juridiction vient de donner raison à Supermac's. Désormais McDonald's ne pourra plus donner le nom "Big Mac" à ses hamburgers au poulet. Pour en avoir le droit, la firme américaine aurait dû démontrer la réelle utilisation de ce nom, pour les produits concernés, durant une période de 5 ans.Or, d'après les juges, McDonald's n'a pas été en mesure de prouver ce point. Supermac's s'est bien sûr félicité de ce jugement. D'autant que, pour lui, il s'agissait d'un combat inégal, dans lequel son rival avait plus de chances de l'emporter.Quant aux responsables de McDonald's, ils en ont relativisé la portée. Ils considèrent en effet que cette décision de justice ne remet pas en cause leur droit à utiliser l'appellation "Big Mac" pour les hamburgers au poulet en dehors de l'UE ou pour d'autres produits. Et ils estiment que le jugement ne changera rien au succès rencontré par ces hamburgers.Le Tribunal étant une juridiction de première instance, McDonald's peut de toute façon faire appel de ce jugement auprès de la Cour de justice de l'Union européenne (CJUE), qui ne juge pas sur le fond, mais sur des points de droit.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports McDonald's has lost a trademark fight in the EU.

Pat McDonagh, Managing Director of Supermac's give us his reaction

This Day in Legal History: Denmark Becomes a Constitutional MonarchyOn June 5, 1849, Denmark transitioned from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy with the signing of its first constitution. This pivotal moment marked the end of absolute royal rule and the beginning of a new era of governance based on democratic principles. The Danish constitution of 1849 safeguarded civil liberties, including freedom of speech, assembly, and religion. It also curtailed the king's powers, ensuring that he could no longer rule by decree. A significant feature of the new constitution was the establishment of a bicameral legislature known as the Rigstag, composed of the Folketing and the Landsting. The Folketing served as the lower house, representing a broader spectrum of the populace, while the Landsting functioned as the upper house. This legislative framework aimed to balance representation and ensure a more equitable system of governance.The constitution laid the groundwork for Denmark's modern democratic system, promoting the rule of law and the protection of individual rights. Each year on June 5, Denmark commemorates this historic event with Constitution Day, a national holiday celebrating the values and freedoms enshrined in the 1849 constitution. This day serves as a reminder of Denmark's commitment to democracy and civil rights, reflecting the enduring legacy of the country's constitutional foundations.The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has accused Meta Platforms Inc. of withholding critical information during its initial reviews of the company's acquisitions of Instagram in 2012 and WhatsApp in 2014. These transactions were originally approved after varying levels of scrutiny by the FTC, but the agency now claims that Meta did not disclose key pre-acquisition documents. The FTC, which is currently seeking to break up Meta on antitrust grounds, alleges that this undisclosed information would have impacted its original decisions.Meta, formerly known as Facebook, is attempting to dismiss the case, arguing that its substantial investments in the acquired apps have benefited consumers. A Meta spokesperson countered the FTC's claims by stating that Meta faces significant competition and that the company's investments have enhanced Instagram and WhatsApp.This isn't the first time Meta has faced allegations of non-disclosure; in 2017, European regulators fined the company for providing misleading information about the WhatsApp deal. Additionally, the FTC's recent filing accuses Meta of degrading user experience on its platforms by increasing ad loads and under-resourcing Instagram. The case, overseen by US District Judge James Boasberg, has yet to see a trial date set.Meta Withheld Information on Instagram, WhatsApp Deals: FTC (1)Former President Donald Trump has requested the judge in his hush money case to lift a gag order following his conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. The charges stem from a $130,000 payment made by Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to adult film actress Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election to keep her silent about an alleged encounter. Trump denies the affair and plans to appeal the conviction.Before the trial began, Justice Juan Merchan restricted Trump's public statements about the case to prevent potential threats to the proceedings. Trump's defense argues that with the trial concluded, these restrictions on his First Amendment rights are no longer justified. During the trial, Trump was fined $1,000 for each of 10 violations of the gag order, which included calling Cohen a "serial liar" and criticizing the jury selection.Trump, a candidate in the 2024 presidential election, claims the gag order is unconstitutional. His lawyer, Todd Blanche, highlighted that President Joe Biden and others have publicly commented on the case, while Cohen and Daniels have also continued to publicly criticize Trump. The judge has previously noted that public critics of Trump likely do not need protection under the gag order. The Manhattan District Attorney's office, which brought the case, has not yet responded to the request to lift the gag order. The case continues to attract significant public and media attention as Trump prepares for his upcoming campaign.Trump asks judge to lift gag order after conviction in hush money case | ReutersThe UK's Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT) has ruled that Google parent Alphabet must face a lawsuit worth up to £13.6 billion ($17.4 billion) for allegedly abusing its dominance in the online advertising market. The lawsuit, brought by Ad Tech Collective Action on behalf of UK publishers, claims that Google's anti-competitive behavior caused them significant financial losses.Despite Google's attempt to block the case, arguing it was incoherent and strongly rejecting the allegations, the CAT has certified the case to proceed towards a trial, expected no earlier than the end of 2025. The CAT noted that the threshold for certifying a collective proceeding in the UK is relatively low.This case is part of a broader scrutiny of Google's adtech business by regulators, including Britain's Competition and Markets Authority and the European Commission. In the US, Google is also defending against antitrust lawsuits from the Department of Justice and a coalition of states led by Texas.Google's legal team maintains that the company's impact on the ad tech industry has been pro-competitive. The CAT's decision adds to a series of significant lawsuits against major tech firms this year, including Meta and Apple. Google has not yet responded to the ruling.Tribunal rules $17 bln UK adtech lawsuit against Google can go ahead | ReutersThe EU's General Court has ruled that McDonald's cannot use the term "Big Mac" for poultry products after failing to use the trademark for such products over five consecutive years. This decision is a partial win for the Irish fast-food chain Supermac's in a long-standing trademark dispute. Supermac's initiated the revocation attempt in 2017, challenging McDonald's 1996 registration of the "Big Mac" name for both meat and poultry products.The European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) initially dismissed Supermac's request, supporting McDonald's use of the term. However, Supermac's continued to contest the decision. The General Court sided with Supermac's, stating that McDonald's did not demonstrate continuous use of the "Big Mac" trademark for poultry products within the EU for five years. McDonald's has the option to appeal the decision to the Court of Justice of the European Union.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Pocket over Zoom video!After much fanfare for his recent singles, the rising star of the electronic scene, Edinburgh-raised Pocket, recently released his debut Helix Records EP, ‘Love DIsc.'The EP features the single, “Evergreen (ft. kloe),” which is available to stream now. The track is built around a joyful and radiant house instrumental that balances perfectly with kloe's heartfelt lyrics and stunning vocal delivery.“‘Evergreen' was a song that I started with the idea that its simplicity is its strength. Lots of texture and all based around the piano part. KLOE and I had a chat about our lives and everything we were experiencing, and the song became a love letter to being with someone long distance. The unapologetic lyrics and feel is to me what makes it such a standout. In the climate of house music and dance music in the UK, it's very easy to hold yourself back from making something sweet and warm with the fear of not fitting the mold, and I'm happy with taking the chance to make that happen,” Pocket says.Diversity is the name of the game when it comes to Pocket's approach to music and the EP offers a kaleidoscope of ranges and styles. Emblematic of Pocket's fresh sound, “U (ft. BRONZE AVERY)” is the perfect combination of pop, house, and UK garage. Pocket's light and airy instrumental melds perfectly with BRONZE AVERY's powerful-yet-soothing vocals. Using curiously satisfying vocal chops, and minimal but intricate production, ‘Crying at Supermac's' shows off a sound reminiscent of classic Burial. Pocket's unique style pierces through the saturated scene, showcasing a unique and excitable new project for fans.It's been an incredible start to Pocket's career - he was named one of the top 25 artists to watch in 2022 by Mixmag (his song 'Heartbreak Engineering' was also named amongst ‘Best Tracks of the Year April 2022'); received playlist support from Flume, DJ Seinfeld, and Salute, released a remix for Charli XCX and performed alongside Porter Robinson and Fred Again and has been included in tastemaker playlists POLLEN and Altar. Pocket's recent release, ‘U (ft BRONZE AVERY), featured in Paper Magazine in addition to receiving support from a who's who of DJs including Armin Van Buuren, The Magician, Dillon Francis, Joris Voorn, Calvin Harris, MK, Icarus, Oliver Heldens, Martin Garrix, Kryder, Sam Divine, Don Diablo, Carl Craig, Gabriel & Dresden / Dave, and PS1, among others.We want to hear from you!
